Public Citizen Texas is an office of progressive advocates who research and recommend policy that will lower electric bills, increase clean and renewable sources of energy, and combat greenhouse gas emissions which are responsible for global climate change. We have professionals working to encourage city and state incentives for energy efficiency (the only negative-cost energy source), to create incentives and mandates for more renewable energy, and to stop newly proposed coal and nuclear plants which pose major health and environmental risks and are likely to cost consumers more than cleaner greener alternatives.

Texas State University-San Marcos purchased Aquarena in 1994, changing the focus of the former theme park, from entertainment to preservation and education. The 90-acre acquisition has enabled Texas State to preserve the beautiful, ecologically fragile site for the state, while opening up classroom, lab and research possibilities for the university.
Join us for what we hope will be the best celebration of Mother Earth in Texas! Last year's festival drew nearly 3000 people and we have heard back from many who plan to attend this year's Aquarena Earth Day Celebration!
